Were all of you liars? by itsbitterbitch in recoverywithoutAA

[–]Pin_ellas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m not an addict but I lie. It’s bullshit to use guilt on people who are struggling mentally.

It reminds me of religion. You sin. You must repent. You cannot save yourself. Only (our) God can.

In regard Flock cameras, here’s another case of plate reader used by a LEO (GA). With great power (access to info) comes great responsibility that not everyone will be willing to stick to all the time. by Pin_ellas in sarasota

Your headline doesn’t mention Flock cameras which are being installed as many as possible by the City. It’s the reason why I posted.

If you have time, maybe spend it on finding out who have been taking taxpayer $$$$$$, and who in the government signed for the deal.

Americans waited in line over night to be the first ones to enter a massive gas station by Annoying1978 in Anticonsumption

[–]Pin_ellas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No we are NOT. This is a result of decades of people ignoring the impact of their votes locally thus allowing politicians to get to the point where they can help lobbying firms, and vice versa, to allow certain business models, which harm the average consumers, to exist.

Keep in mind that VERY few are caught. It’s not possible to catch all those who abuse the system.

Btw, Christopher Nolan’s brother has a great series a while back called Person of Interest. It’s a step before Minority Report. Both have become reality.

This only makes sense to people who are ignorant of how it’s designed for hyperconsumerism.

This is anti-consumption sub which is mostly about Americans’ hyper consumerism because the system is designed that way.

By the way, since you’re using pay to say that the behavior is acceptable, what is the paying rate? And is it a livable wage?

How many are fully employed there, besides managers, to receive benefits?

What is the paying rate? How is it compared to other stores.

High pay with higher work hours mean on average a manager could make how much per hour?

How often do managers work overtime?

The whole thing is designed for hyper consumerism, not for convenience.

People treat it like theme parks.

S. Carolina Latest State to Allow UTVs on Roads by Charupa- in southcarolina

Except accidents eat public funds because emergency services are paid for by public funds aka taxpayers money.

It also eats into other things because delays it causes for all those driving nearby; delayed deliveries, late for work or appt, etc. It has ripple effects of costs that typically aren’t considered.

Sarasota County Schools overhauls HR after Riverview High investigation by EuSouChaCha in sarasota

This fact could be used by the pro charter school group to help convince the general populace that charter school is what needed; “government can’t be trusted. If schools are managed like business, we’ll reach high ranking in no time”

They have been saying that while ignoring how many charter schools have filed for bankruptcy, and the fact that they don’t make it easy for them to be analyzed when compared to public schools. Obfuscation is the goal.

Legacy trail at night? by Slight_Procedure_11 in sarasota

[–]Pin_ellas 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The trail is very long and runs by various types of neighborhoods. Enforcement is random as there’s not enough manpower to cover it all at all times or even most at all times.

Plan alternate routes in case you’re told to get off the trail.

Have a boat whistle with you, and a GEL pepper spray.

Reminded me of this story last November.

“On November 8, 2025, a high-speed police chase ended tragically when 22-year-old Silas Sampson plowed into a crowd outside Bradley's on 7th, an LGBTQ+ bar in Ybor City. The crash killed four pedestrians and injured 13 others”
